recently i've been spending a fair amount of time staring directly down the barrel of a particle accelerator and that shit genuinely hits different

like you'll get eye strain from spending too much time staring at any kind of screen but the CRT eye strain is spicier

@monorail it gets much more pleasant if you get to at least 90 Hz, 60 Hz CRTs give me almost an instant headache

funny enough 50 Hz TVs don't but I guess the lower resolution helps? idk how it works there

@noiob i bet if i got a higher frame rate crt the screaming would be too high pitched to hear 🤔

Follow

@monorail they make 100/120Hz tubes that just frame double
